Is this a quad core?

Yes quad core intel i7, it's very fast and work grate with disign graphics.

No, It is not. It's big but not overly space consuming. Just make sure you have at least a full tower to handle it, and make sure it's not fighting for space next to you processor heat sink.

No. It is one of the weakest processors out there. Do not buy this laptop. I deeply regret getting it.

The model I purchased had a Pentium D processor clocked at 3.4ghz but I think it was a single core rather than a dual core. If you plan on upgrading it I have done some researching and I know the pentium dual core is supported and I have had one confirmation that the intel core 2 quad extreme q6700 is also supported but I cannot confirm as I have not tested it myself.

I put my quad core microprocessor into a Pavilion G7 AMDA6 Vision motherboard to make it an A-10 video core and it works fine. If you are not sure, go to www.hp.comand they will give you advise if it fits yours as an upgrade as they did for me. I received a response the same afternoon or evening. SAN

should run with relative ease. the four cores includes hyperthreading but it should still be plenty enough cpu power

Thanks for the advice but do you think the dual core would be better? It's cheaper as well.

It doesn't have four separate processors. It is 1 processor with 4 cores(quad).

I'm running an Intel Core i7-3770K Quad-Core Processor 3.5 GHz 8 MB Cache LGA 1155 in it, so I'm also going to say yes.

I don't think it will this quad core is 4.2 ghz unlocked so its pertty fast and can handle good and can still be over locked if needed I have no problem with mine I run a visiontek readon 7950 3gb ddr5 graphics card and it runs it just fine it's a decent CPU for a very good price hope that helps any good day

Yes. This is one of the fastest CPUs Intel has made so far, and it will do anything that can be done with a single Quad-core CPU. It also is an an excellent combination of value for the cost.

I really don't know... I mated mine to an AMD FX 8-core 3.0ghz cpu... with 32gig system RAM... don't worry about 'bottlenecks'... -=grin=-

At least two. Could be four depending on the chip you purchased. If you will check the original shipping list that came with your machine, unless it says quad core. you only have two.

8 in. Quad core for $160. Couldn't pass it up. I've had it for a couple months now. No problems.

The 2 cores listed on the specs is most likely a typo. It is in fact a quad core i5.

It is listed as 2.4 ghz, and it's a quad processor. It's fast for a moderate priced laptop.

No. It is one physical i5; that processor is hyper-threaded and a dual core processor, giving you 4 threads. http://ark.intel.com/m/products/65707
